In flight no one can hear you snore ... John Reilly could be the pseudonym of any modern airline pilot. Fatigued from overwork and dismayed by relentless cost-cutting, Captain Reilly finds himself developing an unhelpful aversion to the very people who pay his salary: passengers and managers. Riding with the Captain on a typical flight, we watch as he struggles with the challenges facing today's airline pilot: staying awake, keeping crew food down, fending off flirtatious cabin crew and completing the crossword before landing. But, forced to work away from home, Captain Reilly encounters a new challenge: how to prevent his family life deteriorating faster than the once respected profession that still pays his bills. The Life of Captain Reilly is a shocking but hilarious insider tale of the modern airline that reveals the industry's greatest secret: glamour doesn't fly anymore. PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU HAVE A ROMANTICIZED PERCEPTION OF AIRLINE PILOTS AND COMMERCIAL AVIATION -- AND YOU WISH TO KEEP IT -- DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!

"Many Christian women are prayer warriors--great intercessors.&nbsp; Sometimes, however, they do not take the time to pray adequately for themselves. We have put together this devotional book as a special guide in praying for yourself as a Christian woman.&nbsp; Elizabeth Elliot once said: "We are called to be women. The fact that I am a woman does not make me a different kind of Christian, but the fact that I am a Christian does make me a different kind of woman. For I have accepted God's idea of me, and my whole life is an offering back to Him of all that I am and all that He wants me to be."1&nbsp; God wants us to be a different kind of woman--not a carbon copy of the world's idea of the beautiful woman but a unique expression of the beauty that comes from being filled with the Holy Spirit; not just a woman who prays on occasion but a prayer warrior who storms the gates of heaven for herself and her loved ones; not a woman who demands her rights but one who lays down her rights in order to submit to the One who has a perfect will and way for her life; not just a woman of good works but one who gives cups of cold water in the name of and for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ; not a woman who cocoons in her home but a hospitable woman who opens her heart and her home to all whom God brings into her life; nor a woman who considers her Christianity to be a private matter, but a woman who spreads the sweet fragrance of the knowledge of Jesus Christ in every place she goes. Yes, we are to be different from the world because Jesus Christ has made all the difference in our lives.&nbsp; How can you and I be the kind of women God desires for us to be? How can we keep from conforming to the world's mold? Only as we spend much time alone in God's presence--as we come aside each day, setting our hearts on things above, seeking God's face and His will. Sarah and Patti have created a guide so that each Christian woman can pray:&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Using Encouraging Words&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Handling My Emotions&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Dealing with Expectations&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Opening My Heart to Others&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Growing Spiritually&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Seeking God's Guidance in My Daily Life&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Enriching My Relationships&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Growing Through Life's Seasons&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Expanding My World&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;New Beginnings "
